    I know I should be able to do my own research but I'm not well informed about the likes of laptops.

    Interested in a Clevo P151HM and looking to get the 'best' possible config for $1100 with Windows 7.

    What should I get?

    thanks

    Well, what do you want to use it for/what do you expect to do on it?

    Hi,

    Given your budget, you have a couple of options. The price of a P151HM1 with Windows 7 and a 2630QM is 1017 [be sure to select the 4 DIMM 8GB Ram option). From there, you have a couple of options that would be worth your money.

    - $100 95% Gamut screen upgrade
    - $40 Cooling Compound Upgrade
    - $50 HDD Upgrade from 500 to 750 GB

    It's all a matter of how you pirioritize your wants/needs in your new laptop. :)
